Exploration with the REG has produced some interesting revelations about the concept of collective consciousness. PEAR's FieldREG studies demonstrated that REGs can respond to group interaction without their knowledge, and the Global Consciousness Project demonstrates that a worldwide network of REGs will produce anomalous results when significant world events occur.

What all of this suggests is that interpersonal connections and group consciousness are powerful forces, capable of impacting the physical world. When individuals come together, for a concert or football game, or for a workshop or to brainstorm a business plan, or simply when large numbers of people focus on the same thing, this collective or shared consciousness has an organizing influence on the physical "space" around it. This space could be as small as a single room, or as large as the planet.

Experience at Psyleron shows us that the REG-1 can be used as a kind of "thermometer" for when groups of people are working together effectively. REG-1 feedback can be used to isolate the best features of group activity, and to build upon them. We believe this to be a significant feature of consciousness technology, and are actively developing applications to ehnance REG-1 feedback for groups and organizations.

Our experience in consciousness research has led us to believe that all consciousness is connected at some level, and that physical reality, to some extent, is dictated by collective awareness. Perhaps this extent is small; perhaps it is large. In any case, the remarkable implication is that by working together, we are cable of changing reality.
